Applied Psychology and Evaluation Science

Due to an increasing demand to access some of the on-campus events and resources in recent years, the Division of Behavioral and Organizational Sciences is proud to offer the digital collection below. These online lectures are intended allow faculty, alumni, and students of all universities worldwide to enjoy resources previously only available to those able to come to Claremont Graduate University in Southern California.

The DBOS Online Digital Library is a continually expanding effort to share information on the latest issues in applied psychological science, research methods, and evaluation. Additional talks are posted frequently. The catalog below is intended as a starting point to meet the most frequent and pressing requests we have received.

Most of these files are large, and may take several minutes to load. If you experience difficulties, please let us know at (909) 607-9016 or john.lavelle@cgu.edu.
